    @kate no darling, not you. The other best friend.

    And yes, @northerner. Books are for entertaining, sure. But they are so much more than that. Some books not so much, but some of them have themes that I end up, consciously or unconsciously, applying to everyday life. Which is part of the reason I like Sanderson’s Stormlight Archive so much because there were so many things I could draw out of it for myself. Granted, I look for theme more consciously than an average reader. But it’s still there regardless.

    @karthmin I wondered. I just hadn’t bothered to go look it up yet. 😛 But yes, plausible explanations. And then if they end up wrong, one can go rewrite the textbooks because the ‘real’ explanation doesn’t make as much sense.

    But troublemakers? Us? *skeptical stare* What would ever give you that impression? Someday, maybe, we’ll live closer together. Seeing each other once or twice a year is not nearly enough.
